Thanks.

In short terms: assign values to the attributes that compose the payload of the event. Then raise it. Here a simple example of raising the Flex Field compilation event:
declare
l_application_id fnd_application.application_id%TYPE := &1;
l_descriptive_flexfield_name varchar2(200) := '&2';
l_application_short_name fnd_application.application_short_name%TYPE;
l_parameters wf_parameter_list_t := wf_parameter_list_t();
begin
SELECT application_short_name
INTO l_application_short_name
FROM fnd_application
WHERE application_id = l_application_id;
wf_event.addparametertolist(p_name => 'APPLICATION_SHORT_NAME',
p_value => l_application_short_name,
p_parameterlist => l_parameters);
wf_event.addparametertolist(p_name => 'APPLICATION_ID',
p_value => l_application_id,
p_parameterlist => l_parameters);
wf_event.addparametertolist(p_name => 'DESCRIPTIVE_FLEXFIELD_NAME',
p_value => l_descriptive_flexfield_name,
p_parameterlist => l_parameters);
wf_event.raise(p_event_name => 'oracle.apps.fnd.flex.dff.compiled',
p_event_key => (l_application_short_name || '.' ||l_descriptive_flexfield_name),
p_event_data => NULL,
p_parameters => l_parameters,
p_send_date => Sysdate);
end;
Regards.
